Fish Spells Allah and Muhammad

Status: Pareidolia

Oscar, who's a fish, lives in a tank in Waterfoot, England. He's attracting quite a bit of attention because markings on one side of his body seem to spell out the name Allah in arabic script, while markings on his other side seem to spell out Muhammad. Since I don't know arabic, I'm not in a position to judge how much the markings look like these words. But at least saying that markings spell a word is a bit more cut-and-dry than saying that markings look like Jesus, the Virgin Mary, or someone else whose appearance is unknown. (And now that I think about it, I suppose the Muslim ban on images of Muhammad means that the world will never get to see pieces of toast or frying pans bearing the image of Muhammad.) People who have examined Oscar are quite confident that the markings haven't been painted on in any way. I'm sure Oscar's new-found status as a miracle fish won't hurt the price the pet shop owner can fetch for him. (Thanks to Paul Farrington for the link.)

Dear outest, i'm very impressed by your way of thinking really..you look wel cultured and open minded..that is good..sooo good..as it is very important to open a reasonable dialogue with you...
you've put some quranic examples about science..
but i want to clarify something for first..Quraan scientific miracles is not mentioned to be a proof of the Quraan ginuninty...it's only as u refered...description of the nature around the people 1500 years ago..but here comes the point...1500 years ago...and we can find a book describing these nature scenes that accurately with no mistake at all...plus it's adding hints for the coming generations and the recent ones for better understanding of the scientific revolution, and to find this signs..till now ..suitable for its related scientific theory..it's something marvellous..
in addition to that no..not as u said that quraan( as a model )sometimes fails to predict reality and on that..we blame reality not the model(that's wht i undrstood)..Quraan nver never contradicted reality or mere facts..it needs only better understanding to its meanings, it's values..it needs openmindness to accept it...then you will every time you hear a quraanic verses..you will shake your head astonishingly with its deep meanings and signs..saying...(yeah, right..subhan Allah, God is great)..Outest, believe me..i'm telling you that coz i know what you r thinking of..what r the factors affecting u..i've seen many people who think like u..and others with different idiolgies..but i'm telling u what should really happens if &if; only...u understood true meanings of Quraan..
any way, i've tried to answer u with my very poor English as much as i could..but i really admired your way of thinking..and i really hope if we could communicate with emails..if u like...my email : .(JavaScript must be enabled to view this email address)
N.B:falak in arabic means( orbit )..at least that what we call it here..
plus..there is another verse in quraan saying that the sun is not a steady star..it's moving too...

Put a pirana (may be spelled wrong but you know what fish I mean) in with it. See what happens.

The reason why it is easy for us muslims to see is cuz we have seen th ewords so many times and they are easy to see. Ever1 can tell that is says Allah + Muhammed(pbuh). And to those hu say that nothing happens wen there are pix of well then Y dont cha doin summat about it?!

Oh, and Jaffar - I can't be certain of your meaning because you are clearly a near-total illiterate and appear to have omitted a critical noun. However, you appear to be saying that rather than criticizing muslims for rioting over depictions of Mohammed, Christian themselves should take to the warpath over desecrations of their own idols. Do I have that right?

thats just ridiculios anyone who fall for that is just dumb, it is most likely photo shopped

Allah's signs are everywhere in this univers even more in us.can't we see them?

CHECK OUT THIS Video :"Allahu akbar" in a fish. noticed that the fish was not born with it, it just happened later on a sudden. this fish wasn't eating after this happend to it .but it kept growing even bigger than the other fish.
say allah akbar walhamdu lillah

"We will show them Our signs in all the regions of the earth and in their own souls, until they clearly see that this is the truth ..." (QUR'AN, Surah Fussilat, 41:53)
Thank you Hamid in Africa, I too am a muslim. I'm sorry if you're angry I copied and pasted your reference from the Quran. It clearly spells out Mohammed. And for u people joking around you will be punished in this life and the hereafter.

this clearly says MUHAMMAD . You people who are saying that it is something else you guys are just jealous because it doesn't say Jesus or something. Islam has alot of miracles and if you don't belive me go to YOUTUBE and type in MIRACLES OF ALLAH. There you will see videos that Islam has so many good miracles that can't be fake. just look at the videos

People are the enimies of what they do not know, OpenMinded.By the way,thank you for your remark about the spelling mistakes , although you have not been openminded enough since you refer my spelling mistakes to others !!!
